OPOTA Portal

The Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy Portal is a state-of-the-art electronic information system that allows Ohio law enforcement, private security officers and other law enforcement agencies to search and register for in person training classes efficiently and securely.

Use of OPOTA Portal is currently limited to those employed by criminal justice agencies and private security agencies.

Should you have any questions about the portal or need assistance with course registration, please email OPOTARegistration@OhioAGO.gov.

First-Time Login Instructions

To obtain access to OPOTA Portal, you must have an approved account.

If you recently registered for a course from within OHLEG’s “OPOTA In-Person Registration and Certificates,” you were notified that a new OPOTA Portal is coming and it offered you to pre-register for the OPOTA Portal. If you took the steps necessary to do this, your OPOTA Portal account is already created! All you need to do is click Forgot your password which will reset your password and allow you to log in.

If you did not pre-register via OHLEG, you will need to create a new OPOTA Portal account by clicking the Sign Up / Sign In then “Sign Up Now” to create your account. In the event you get an error during registration that says “A user with the specified ID already exists,” this indicates you pre-registered and all you need to do is reset your password via the above steps.

For private security students, please remember to submit a document from your current employer with agency letterhead (the profile form will allow you to upload the document) to establish your employer in private sector security.

For online course, please continue to use OPOTA Online.
